Exellent customer service

Exellent customer service - I had some pretty dumb questions about my offset mortgage account, but your fantastic customer service representative, Gillian Collard, was patient, highly professional and explained everything perfectly. Absolutely faultless! Reviewed on: 30th April 2025

A pleasure to deal with!

5
Great people to deal with. Obviously very well trained as regards the products they offer, they have a kind and human approach to customers and in my experience cannot do enough to help. Very good listeners, intelligent and cheerful - and in my own case (as an expat looking for a buy-to-let mortgage) undoubtedly offered the best product around. I cannot recommend The Family highly enough. Reviewed on: 27th September 2024
